Let US DOE know that gifted education grants are a priority

The US Department of Education recently released 11 proposed grant priorities. Proposed Priority 5 (c) supports gifted education. These priorities impact at least $700 million worth of discretionary grants and individuals have until Monday, November 13th to comment.

NAGC has submitted these comments here to support Proposed Priority 5 (c).nagc_press_release.pdfHowever, we need your personal support to ensure this gifted priority is finalized. The more comments they receive about gifted education priorities, the more llikely grants will be funded that will consider and include the needs of gifted students. Your help may only take five minutes but it may make a lasting difference for the gifted students across our country.

The more positive gifted comments received, the more likely Proposed Priority 5 (c) will be finalized. This action encourages future grantees to address the needs of gifted learners.

Should you have comments on other priorities, please address them in a separate post.

If this gifted priority is finalized, it will be great news for gifted education, since it could potentially increase the amount of Federal funding awarded to support gifted education. Won't you please take action and get other voters in your household to also complete a comment on this web form? Please share this email with those who will help.

Thank you for your support,

Roberta Braverman and Lynne Henwood, on behalf of the NJAGC Officers and Board of Trustees
